सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः , सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः ।
सर्वे भद्राणि पश्यन्तु, मा कश्चिद्दुःखभाग्भवेत् ।
ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः ॥
अर्थ – “सभी सुखी होवें, सभी रोगमुक्त रहें, सभी मंगलमय के साक्षी बनें और किसी को भी दुःख का भागी न बनना पड़े।”
Here is an animation depicting the spread of seismic waves across the globe and to the antipode from the M7.8 earthquake that struck the Philippines. The entire Earth shakes for hours after powerful events as such!
Something ‘unprecedented’ is now happening to Earth’s rotation, scientists say
Climate change is slowing Earth's spin – and there's nothing quite like it in 3.6 million years

Breaking News!
Code Yikes!
The latest CERES data for March just dropped and the planet is now at its fastest rate of heating since January, 2024.
Over the last 12 months Earth warmed at a rate of about 13.16 Hiroshimas per second, or about 1.14 million Hiroshimas per day.
The three year running average for the global surface temperature anomaly is now more than 1.54°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline.
With El Nino ahead, expect this to keep rising over the next two years.
I'm sure it will come as no surprise to you that the global sea-surface temperature hit yet another new record daily high yesterday.
Let's get ready to party like it's 1929!
Antarctica’s Collapse May Have Already Begun
Antarctica is melting and one of its largest glaciers is collapsing from underneath. Thwaites could trigger a wider collapse of the full West Antarctic ice sheet, raising sea levels by 5 meters.

Mysterious ‘cold blob’ in the Atlantic suggests the AMOC is weakening
A patch of ocean south-east of Greenland is the only place on Earth that is cooling, and it could be a sign that the warm water “conveyor belt” in the Atlantic is slowing down

Antarctica's 'doomsday glacier' collapse may be worse than we thought
If it destabilises, it could trigger a wider collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet, raising sea levels by up to 5 metres
Scientists believe we may be approaching a tipping point that could completely redraw the world’s coastlines

The WMO says El Niño is developing, with an 80% chance of forming by August and a 90% chance of lasting into late 2026.
The UN weather agency warns it could bring more heatwaves, droughts, flooding and other extreme weather worldwide, with climate change expected to intensify its impacts.
The Middle East is nearing 50°C in parts. Imagine being stuck on a ship in that heat. Temperatures like this show how totally dependent Gulf societies are on cooling, power, & desalination infrastructure. Without them, large parts of the region would become totally uninhabitable.
The Pacific is waking up big time.
Sea surface temperatures off Peru are now running more than 4°C above normal, while the classic El Niño warm pool expands westward across the tropical Pacific.
In a warming world, Super El Niños could become far more common.
A huge heat dome is sitting over France, with temperatures that might hit 40°C. It’s still spring. It’s still May. What was once considered “extreme” is increasingly becoming normal across Europe. Heatwaves are earlier, longer, & pushing ecosystems and health beyond limits.
Estáis viendo una semana de anomalías térmicas en Europa. El efecto de la dorsal anticiclónica que se extiende por gran parte del suroeste va a dejar anomalias de temperatura positivas que, en algunos casos, alcanzan +15 °C. Lo llamativo de este episodio no es solo la magnitud, sino también cuánto dura en el tiempo. Lo que hace décadas eran pequeñas incursiones de calor primaveral de dos o tres días, ahora dura hasta dos semanas. Los extremos climáticos de hoy se mantienen en lo que yo llamo el modo "enganchado" durante días y días. Esta es quizá la señal más evidente del nuevo clima que nada tiene que ver con el de hace unas décadas.

“The Arctic is currently warming at four times the rate experienced by the rest of the planet. But the Antarctic has started to catch up, so that it is already warming twice as quickly as the planet overall.” https://t.co/gTDinE6ClH
